I have a character I trying to make in doll form that is going to need some freckles. What is the best way to make freckles?

I like to use a toothpick to make small dots of color. (I actually didn't do freckles with it, but same basic principle.)

I do it with a brown watercolour pencil, but I guess there are lots of methods ^^. Depends on your own style and preference.

I'll second the water color pencil. Works and looks natural. Be careful if you seal them though not to brush across the freckles, but carefully dot. You could smear them.

The tip of a pin dipped in freckle color.

I don't have a water color pencil, so I guess a toothpick or pin tip it is. Thanks :D
